Sivir is nasty in a lane but she's really fragile and doesn't have much in the way of CC. Once you get ricochet leveled up to around 3-4 she can start exercising her superior lane control but she's very much a glass cannon. Any aggresive play can shut her down fairly easily. Add in the fact that vampiric scepter only applies to the initial hit and not to the boomerang bounces and she's pretty easy to force into a turret hug situation if she's mid against Morde or an Ez that can connect with mystic shot.

If you're into ranged dps carries try playing somebody like Teemo or Corki. Teemo is a demon at lane control with his mushrooms and Corki has some sick sick range on his missiles. Corki also forces you to get good with skillshots (as does Ezreal) which makes you into a better player. He also has the advantage of Valk for a built-in escape mechanism.

He's so squishy and doesn't have any escape abilities. I might just be building him wrong though. I bought him a month or so ago, won a few TT's with him and never busted him out again so I don't have a great gear setup or skill order yet.

Any hero with stealth is a bit OP imo, as based on the dynamics of the game, 2 on 1 can be a total gankfest, thus knowing opponent locations is paramount, and to deal with stealth you need to buy the expensive of the 2 wards, which limit where you can be, as the range isn't that big, or buy an elixir, which eats into your item build a lot, and the fact that you lose it if you die is annoying.

Twitch doesn't really need to be fed as much as you think, you just need a certain amount of +attack speed, since each hit stacks poison, stealth, wait for someone to get distracted attacking a tower, or moving somewhere, unstealth with your bonus attack speed, then just expunge for stupid burst damage with autoattack + 1 skill.

He's just stupid hero, period. He's not n00b friendly though. You actually need to know how to use him, but you can start owning from around lvl 4 or something depending on how much money you have from first blood, kills and last hitting.

Against a decent team at a high ELO he's worthless. As soon as I see a Twitch in 5v5 I adjust my playing strat, as soon as I see an Evelyn in 3v3 I adjust for that (I laugh at Eve in 5v5, she's crap).

Wards aren't that expensive and can be placed in choke points. You know, if you're mid, that twitch is going to sit in one of the bushes on the river while he waits for his stealth CD and the proper opening. You know he'll do the same if you're top or bottom.

With good lane support and a laning partner that's on vent he's not going to kill you if you're awake. And in a teamfight? HAHAHAHAHHA, he's a red smear on the ground or running for his life as soon as spray n' pray gets popped.

Look at this RETARDED team I got for TT. The Master Yi went AFK about 10 minutes in, and then the silvir guy just stopped playing after he got owned by a 3v1. And I still managed to hold em off for a while =]

EU or US? Even with the change from GoA to Riot Games, regions are still account separate, like WoW.

LFLHeroes still need to be unlocked with points, either by coughing up money to get Riot Points, or just playing to earn Influence Points. There is a rotation of free heroes that gets changed per week, and I think you get a random free hero when you make an account, that's the only explanation I have come up with why I have a random Corki unlocked on my account, as the last time I played before restarting was during the beta when everything was unlocked.
